Leegol Electric 3LB Rock Tumbler

Great machine. Works perfect.

I have used Chicago Electric 3 lb tumblers for 15 years. My oldest one finally died. Online, I could only find Leegol brand and is was supposed to be "the same" as Chicago. When I got it, it was really loud. The motor made much more noise that the Chicago tumblers. Then, in less than 5 months, it stopped working. Motor seems frozen? and it just makes a grinding noise. I checked the operation manual for suggestions...none. Made sure it wasn't the belt. I have tried contacting Leegol through their amazon store and directly throught their email support on their website, with no reply. The phone number listed on their amazon store is for a freight forwarding logistics company and they know the Leggol number on amazon is wrong because they field a lot of calls from customers looking for Leggol. Buyer beware.....

Nice size. Works good. It is louder than expected. Belt broke during second batch of rocks. Consider the ongoing cost of replacement belts before purchasing.

This machine is a great stater for the amateur rock hound. It isn’t too noisy and easy to use.

I have ran one batch of rocks in this tumbler and it's already having issues. It stalls a lot and makes this high pitch noise until you "fix" it, which is re-centering it. The barrel gets off center and rubs against the metal tumbler, creating metal shavings on the table. I thought the belt would go out before other issues, but I was wrong. Tumbler is also not quiet. I have to have it in the garage due to the noise. If I could go back in time and purchase another tumbler before this one, I 1000% would. 0/10, would not recommend.

A tumbler is a tumbler for the most part. This one I ordered has a transparent cylinder. You get to see what is going on inside as it tumbles.

This tumbler did a great job with the first batch and after that it broke the drive belt. After that it rounded the plastic gear on the motor and then the motor froze up. It almost caught on fire. Do not buy this product. It is not safe and only lasts a few weeks.

Belt was off upon arrival. Feet are falling off after a month. Wobbles so much it will walk across a table. Might want to brace this device.
